★ Kiss ~ The Devil is Me lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

I ran from temptation
I prayed for salvation (yeah)
I screamed at God
Save me from my own damnation (yeah)
My eyes were cold and blinded
I held the page I could not read
Drew up my blood inside him
I woke up in a sweat
And heard the Lord's decree

The Devil is me
The Devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the Devil is me (yeah)

I lived in confusion
Choked on my past illusions
I sinned a thousand times
And drank the wine
While screaming out for absolution (yeah)
I stood on mountain broken
I woke up in a sweat
And heard the Lord's decree

Take a look at yourself and tell me what toi see...
The Devil is me

My eyes were cold and blinded
I held the page I could not read
Drew up my blood inside him
I woke up in a sweat
And heard the Lord's decree

Yeah!

The Devil is me...

KIss's Paul Stanley says band can survive without him and Gene

posted by rakshasa

Kiss is one of the most populaire bands in the world, and is also one of the most recognizable brands. This has been accomplished largely due to the marketing genius of bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons, though fellow vocalist/guitarist Paul Stanley deserves credit too. In fact, it could be a dit that Kiss is Gene and Paul, as the remaining two original members, guitarist Ace Frehley and le batteur, batteur Peter Criss, haven’t played with the band in over ten years. Those roles are now filled par Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer, respectively. But could Kiss live on without Gene and Paul?

According to Stanley,...

★ Kiss ~ Last Chance lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

Open the door and let the night come crawlin' in
Take a bite of the core of the original sin
Yeah, you're ready for more
But toi just don't know where to begin (yeah toi do)

This is your last chance to get it right
Do your dance on the edge of the knife
It's your last chance so just roll the dice
'Cause nobody here is getting out alive

toi want it, toi need it so get on the ride
Yeah, toi heard you'll be sorry but toi know that they lied
Yeah, there's so much here that toi wanna see
You'll give it up eventually, yeah, yeah
So come on and open your eyes
toi gotta live ou toi die

Hey!
Your last chance

This is your last chance to get it right
Do your dance on the edge of the knife
Do your dance, dance, dance on the edge of the knife
Let's go!

This is your last chance, yeah
This is your last chance, right
This is your last chance
Yeah!

Did Gene Simmons Propose To Shannon Tweed?

posted by RumorFix

It looks like Gene Simmons is finally ready to settle down after asking girlfriend of 28 years Shannon Tweed to marry him.

Simmons, 61, made the proposal in front of cameras on the season finale of Gene Simmons: Family Jewels.

“I come with so much baggage, but you’re the only friend I’ve got, ” Simmons told Tweed. “You’re the only one I’ve ever loved … I used to watch films where they say, ‘I can’t live without you,’ but for me it’s true.”

A rep for the rocker confirmed to RumorFix that Gene and Shannon really are engaged. We never thought we’d see the day!

I rode the highway to heartache
I took a trip on the ship of fools, woah yeah!

All that toi never would
It feels good!

Hell ou hallelujah!
No matter what toi do

You a dit that love's never lasting
We surrender our hearts to lose, yeah
Time's up there's nobody askin'
This time I get to choose

Let me hear ya!
Lay down!
Don't say you're sorry
Stay down!
I knew that toi would
Pay now!
Don't say you're misunderstood...

posted by fanbase

There are really great photos of Kiss with the new tour. We can see how the band members have subtly changed over the years. For close up photos of Kiss as they are right now, go to link
and check out the photos in their slide show. toi can compare the photos to how Gene and Paul looked from jour one, and see that even though they wear the same make up, they look different with it than they did when they first started out. toi can see there has been a change behind the masks, so to speak.
Check out the photos and see if toi can tell a difference. Especially the fans who were the Kiss fans from the beginning.

★ Kiss ~ Back To The Stone Age lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

Yeah...
In the beginning there was darkness and there was light
At the dawn of creation there was fear in the dead of night
There was thunder, there was flame
The whole wide world is driving me insane

Don't want to run, don't want to hide
I keep the feu buring deep inside
I howl at the moon, I pray to the sun
I've got a one-way ticket to kingdom come

I'm going back to the stone age
I'm going back where I belong
I'm going back to the stone age
Back where I come from

Telling the world I'm going back where I belong
To a place where the sky is clear, the wind is strong
Climb the mountains, cross...

★ Kiss ~ Shout Mercy lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

Hey!
I don't want a lover's heartache
I don't need nobody's sympathy
So come on get the party started
All I need is lying suivant to me

We got our own situation
Ready, and steady, to go
Come out, put out, get out
That's what we're all about

I want to hear toi shout mercy (whoo-hoo)
I wanna get a little crazy (oh yeah)

Hey!

You got everything I'm after
Flesh and blood just like a fantaisie (whoo-hoo)
Alright

So make my cœur, coeur start beatin' faster
Never is and what can never be (whoo-hoo)
Mercy

You gotta a line to keep waitin'
How is it nobody sees
Come out, put out, get out
That's what we're all about...

posted by rakshasa

The blood's getting hot
No matter what you've got
toi can't stop the roll of the thunder (yeah)
toi wanna take a shot
So give me all you've got
Can't break the spell that I'm under (no)

And the battle never ends
And the soldiers never die
And toi don't back down
And toi don't pretend when toi look them in the eye

And it all comes down
To the mur of sound
Yeah, and it all comes down

When it all goes wrong
You've got to be strong
The rest of the world's going to shatter
It doesn't matter

Let the floods go raging by
Let the sinners wash away
To the dark of man there's a rayon, ray of light
There begins...

My Kisstory

posted by twilighter4evr

my first concert tour

I've been a Kiss fan my entire life no thanks to having three sisters 8, 10, & 13 years older then me who all listened to the band daily. The one thing I've learned is that they are something worth listening to & the best band to see live in concert. I'm gonna tell toi my many years of seeing the hottest band in the world in concert.

Revenge in 1992 was my first concert I went to. I was in the 8th grade the concert was around Christmas so tickets were super cheap only $25 each. So I went with my big Sister Tammy who is my Kiss concert buddy now and forever. The concert was so amazing...

★ Kiss ~ Outta This World lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

Ah yeah!
I was born to the human race
Livin' life feelin' out of place
People a dit I was wasting my time
Looking to find my kind

I saw toi and I realized
toi got the feu burnin' in your eyes
Let's get away, leave it all behind
I'm ready to blow your mind

I'll take toi out of this world (to the other side)
On a midnight rocket ('til the morning light)
Going up, going down (it's gonna be alright)
I'll take toi out of this world tonight

You and me we're like TNT
Light the fuse that's inside of me
toi get your ticket when toi understand
I'm ready to be your man

You got a hunger baby there's no...

King Of The Night Time World lyrics

Songwriters: STANLEY, PAUL / EZRIN, BOB / FOWLEY, KIM VINCENT / ANTHONY, MARK (GB)

It's so sad, livin' at home
Far from the city and the midnight fun
It's so bad, goin' to school
So far from me and the dirty things that we do

I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come live your secret dream

It's so fine, lovin' with ease
Far from the house and the family fights
It's so fine, bein' with you
Bein' with me makes everything alright

I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the...

★ Kiss ~ I'm a Freak lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

I used to wonder why
When I was walking by
They talked about me
What could it be
They tried to break me
Never could make me

Out in the streets
Takin' all the heat
Dancin' in the sheets, oh yeah

All those streaks in my hair
People point at me and stare
If they ask me I'll say, "yeah!"
I'm a freak
And I l’amour the clothes I wear
Where their life goes I don't care
It's my price I'm proud to pay
I'm a freak

The called me crazy
It doesn't faze me
I'm doing fine, they're doing time
They tried to break me
Never could make me
Live like a fire
Dancin' with desire
Walkin' on the wire, oh yeah (yeah, yeah,...

★ Kiss ~ Long Way Down lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

Gypsy, has eyes that hide the secrets no one sees
Easy, toi smile until she brings toi to your knees
Stick around 'til toi get the truth
Taste blood when toi get your proof (oh yeah)
Find that you've never understood
Give it all, but it's meant for good (oh yeah)

And I know this life makes fools of wise men, thieves, and kings (yeah)
When we lose we live our lives like puppets on a string
Close your eyes and you'll lose your soul
Do your time, but there's no parole from here
No chance when the end is near
Hear the words that toi never thought you'd hear (yeah)
Life whispers in your ear

★ Kiss ~ All For The l’amour of Rock & Roll lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

I was just another child going wild in the city
Just gettin' par on a dream
I was thinking life was gonna be so pretty,
It was pretty mean
Yeah

I hit the road with no expectations
Just sleeping where I'd been
I didn't care about the fame ou the money
montrer me a place to play and I'm gonna go

'Cause it's all for the l’amour of rock and roll
In my music, in the air, and I'm losing control
I don't care what toi heard, I don't care what you're told
'Cause it's all for the l’amour of rock and roll

I hitched a ride on a trip going nowhere
Got fifty bucks in a fight
Ain't a lot toi know when it's over
You...

★ Kiss ~ Take Me Down Below lyrics ☆

posted by rakshasa

I saw her standing there accross the room
A glass of wine and some sweat perfume
suivant thing I knew
She was standing right suivant to me (oh, yeah!)
I told her that I had a submarine
She said, "I know exactly what toi mean"
I told that my ship was ready to ride
She touched my cœur, coeur when she touched my thigh

She said, take me down below
It doesn't matter where we go
Yeah, I understand
Lead me par the hand
Won't toi take me down below (yeah)

I took an elevator late one night
This lady par my side looked like she might
The doors were closing
When I asked her to take a ride with me (come here baby!)

Five Vital Business Lessons From Kiss

posted by rockstarbrands

There is a cool CNN special coming up on October 23 all about the Kiss brand. The video promo follows this post. If toi are a Kiss fan you’ll definitely want to watch, but I think as a fan of the music-to-marketing analogy toi will find it very intriguing.

KISS arrived on the scene in the mid 1970s and immediately put the fear of God into parents, teachers, and religious leaders. Kiss wasn’t just a rock band, they were a fire-breathing, devil-worshipping, rock ‘n’ roll circus. An entire generation fell in l’amour with the band and enlisted in the Kiss Army, their parents helpless to stop...
